The Laptop LCD Screen
The Laptop LCD Screen is one of the most important (also expensive) parts for the Laptop. The LCD Screen itself has several components. There are several ways to identify which component is defective.
Problem: Laptop LCD screen was dark.
Solve: plug the laptop to an external monitor. If the external monitor displays normally, then the problem is from one of these components: LCD backlight, laptop inverter, LCD cable or video board. Further tests have to be conducted to verify the particular component.
First open the LCD to test the Laptop inverter, connect to a separate LCD back light (can purchase from www.computercare.ca), turn the computer on; if the backlight lights up, then the inverter is highly unlikely defective.
